Talking Is Teaching

Research shows that some young children are exposed to more language in their homes, early learning programs, and school settings, than other children. This difference in the number of words and back-and- forth interactions children are exposed to during the early years is called the “word gap”. The first 2,000 days of your child’s life — the time between when they are born and when they enter kindergarten — are the most important days to build school and life success.
